    QMplay2

    I am so pleased with myself .

    In 14.04 I have QMplay2 that was installed through @samrog's old PPA (he took it down )

    I love this player.
    this player is great it uses ffmpeg so plays almost anything and will use ffmpeg-VDPAU (hardware decoding)



    it will do youtube ,,,,,and it works , + you can just download the vid if you want .....(must have the "youtube-dl" package)



    the hole interface is comprised of separate widgets , so any one of the tabs can be torn off and be it's own window , or rearranged in the interface



    it's real nice ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, O so how did I get it in 16.04 ?

    well I wint hear https://github.com/zaps166/QMPlay2 and did a "git clone" ,,,,,,,,read the readme ,,,, installed all the *-dev packages the readme said to

    ran the "./installer_unix install" ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, and it errors out with a cryptic message .

    I see the make file that got generated and thought ,, what the heck,,,,and just ran "make" ,,,,,,Aaaaa this errors out with a very concise explanation that it cant find the cddb dev files ,,,,,, I apt search it ,,,and low and behold I had forgotten the libcddb2-dev ,,,,,installed it , reran the "./installer_unix install" ,,,,,,,,and ,,,,,,,,,,, "installation complete"

    I have it in the main menu and the rite click a audio/video file in dolphin "open with" context menu + a "enqueue in QMplay2" option their as well

    it was a small amount of work/fun but it seams to work just fine so far .............................

            Very cool. AAAAAnd maybe the next logical step is for you to make a PPA and share this and any other cool apps you might want to package?

              LOL ,,,,,, I do have a .deb that I made for it ,,,,,,,BUT forgot to add the depends to the control file (exept ffmpeg).......so one would half to make sure they had them ones self.

              I could dropbox it on request I suppose ,,,,, or send a link for quick-serve.

                http://qt-apps.org/content/show.php/...content=153339
                Ubuntu packages (DEB):
                - 64-bit (x86-64) only,
                - 16.05.13-git version,
                - Ubuntu 14.04 package contains FFmpeg 3.0.2 and it is designed only for Ubuntu 14.04 and Linux Mint 17,
                - Ubuntu 15.10 package uses system FFmpeg, it is also designed for Ubuntu 16.04,
                - uses Qt4,
                - tray context menu on Ubuntu Unity (currently works properly on Linux Mint 17 Xfce4 edition) doesn't work due to bugs in dbus-tray implementation in Qt, it will work since Qt 5.6.1,
                - download links are here on qt-apps.org or on QMPlay2 website,
                - if you hide QMPlay2 in Ubuntu Unity you can't show it again from tray icon (will be available since Qt 5.6.1). Just write "QMPlay2 -show" in terminal.
                Before you edit, BACKUP !

                Why there are dead links ?
